New treatment option for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Official title Effect of Postoperative Prolonged Sedation With Dexmedetomidine After Successful Reperfusion With EVT on Long-term Prognosis in Patients With AIS (PPDET)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04916197
What this study is testing
What is Dexmedetomidine prolonged sedation?
Dexmedetomidine prolonged sedation is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for acute ischemic stroke.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Dexmedetomidine can attenuate the activity of the sympathetic nervous system under stress response and improve ischemia-reperfusion injury. The investigators hypothesized that the prolonged sedation of dexmedetomidine after successful reperfusion of endovascular thrombectomy may improve the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
